>Ad blocking by itself is arguably leeching

Yes but we are not profiting from stealing ad revenue from content creators.

>I'm pretty sure having new tab ads and push notification ads does not leech off websites.

You wouldn't be using a browser to access content, and give them a reason to show you ads.




By that metric is a paid browser with ad blocking a leech? I don't think such a thing would be bad at all.
